Activities

Mountrath Golf Club was founded in 1929 and affiliated to GUI in 1932. Originally a 9 hole course, it was extended to 18 holes in 1994. The course is situated 2 miles south from Mountrath, just off the N1 (approx. 1 hour from Dublin). Golfers will relish its fine, long fairways and well manicured greens. Deep, well- shaped bunkers are scattered liberally throughout. The River Nore flows through the course and the old mill, once used to generate electricity stands close by. The Slieve Bloom Mountains nestle in the background. You are always sure of a welcome at the 19th hole.
